Dragoons: A Rotation Reborn

[IllusionGnarash]

Hey Augustus, my list completely agrees with your calculations, except for two areas:

I think the Allagan maiming ring is better than Garuda vortex ring by having 11 Det instead of 16 crit and the earrings I can't imagine why you would want to trade the 8 Det on the Allagan maiming earrings for the 11 skill speed on the Myth version. Maybe your script is not taking into account the change made to the Allagan maiming ears:

Allagan Earrings of Maiming
Before: STR+13, Accuracy+16, Skill Speed+11
After: STR+13, Accuracy+16, Determination+8

Anyways here is my list

heh yeah it may seem counter intuitive to one of us who have been ingrained with the notion that DETER is king. But my script has no feelings and just goes by the #s lol.

According to the new weights EMX provided (2.1)
8 deter's weight of 8*0.209 = 1.672
11 skill speed's weight of 11*0.158 = 1.738

skill speed wins

Vortex and Maiming rings have 13 str and 11 accuracy, but vortex has 16 crit while maiming has 11 deter.
11*0.209 = 2.299
16*0.179 = 2.864

Crit wins ^^

Do you know how the game rounds?

I've read elsewhere that the game rounds down. I'd round down anyway coz I'd rather my estimations be conservative than hopeful, haha.

Ahh yeah the engineer in me says to truncate/round down, but the min/maxer in me wants to ROUND UP UP UP lol

So is the 482 accuracy without food list Augustus has the confirmed T5 BiS list, I'm trying to make some decisions about gear and myth purchases. Also, as a guide to myself I created a spreadsheet of the item weight of iLVL90 gear so I can make choices among the drops I get, its linked here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/...2TjZUQmc#gid=0

Was there any changes to OP's BIS list post 2.1 patch? Other than weapon of course.

[IllusionGnarash]

Seems like a lot changed, I think the most recent list Augustus posted is pretty much the new one

So decided to test out a dummy rq with the parsers updated, no buffs, till I ran out of tp after using invigorate. Standard H IDC P TTT/ H TTT P IDC / H TTT P TTT combo.

Pretty happy with the results, as I've been parsing in the 270-280range just yesterday
